	If you are installing Bugzilla on S.u.S.e. Linux, or some other
	distributions with "paranoid" security options, it is possible
	that the checksetup.pl script may fail with the error:
	<ERRORNAME>cannot chdir(/var/spool/mqueue): Permission denied</ERRORNAME>
	This is because your
	/var/spool/mqueue directory has a mode of "drwx------".  Type
	<COMMAND>chmod 755 /var/spool/mqueue</COMMAND> as root to fix this problem.

	  You should be familiar with, and cross-reference, the UNIX README
	  while performing your Win32 installation.  Unfortunately, Win32
	  directions are not yet as detailed as those for UNIX.
	</PARA>
	<PARA>
	  The <EMPHASIS>most critical</EMPHASIS> difference for Win32 users is
	  the lack of support for a crypt() function in MySQL for Windows.  It does not
	  have it!  All ENCRYPT statements must be modified.

	      You may also use Internet Information Server or Personal Web

	    Configure Bugzilla.  For Win32, this involves editing "defparams.pl"
	    and "localconfig" to taste.  Running "checksetup.pl" should create
	    localconfig for you.  Note that getgrnam() doesn't work, and should be
	    deleted.  Change this line:
	    "my $webservergid = getgrnam($my_webservergroup); "
	    to
	    "my $webservergid = $my_webservergroup; "

	      There are several alternatives to Sendmail that will work on Win32.
	      The one mentioned here is a <EMPHASIS>suggestion</EMPHASIS>, not
	      a requirement.  Some other mail packages that can work include
	      <ULINK URL="http://www.blat.net/">BLAT</ULINK>,
	      <ULINK URL="http://www.geocel.com/windmail/">Windmail</ULINK>,
	      <ULINK URL="http://www.dynamicstate.com/">Mercury Sendmail</ULINK>,
	      and the CPAN Net::SMTP Perl module (available in .ppm).
	      Every option requires some hacking of the Perl scripts for Bugzilla
	      to make it work.  The option here simply requires the least.
	    </PARA>
	  </NOTE>
	  <PARA>
	    Download NTsendmail, available from<ULINK URL="http://www.ntsendmail.com/">
	    www.ntsendmail.com</ULINK>.  In order for it to work, you must set up some
	    new environment variables (detailed on the ntsendmail home page).  Figuring
	    out where to put those variables is left as an exercise for the reader.
	    You must have a "real" mail server which allows you to relay off it
	    in your $ENV{"NTsendmail"} (which you should probably place in globals.pl)
	  </PARA>
	  <PARA>
	    Once downloaded and installed, modify all open(SENDMAIL) calls to open
	    "| c:\ntsendmail\ntsendmail -t" instead of "|/usr/lib/sendmail -t".

	    Modify globals.pl and CGI.pl to remove the word "encrypt".
	  </PARA>
	  <NOTE>
	    <PARA>
	      I'm not sure this is all that is involved to remove crypt.  Any
	      NT Bugzilla hackers want to pipe up?

	<STEP>
	  <PARA>
	    Change all references to "processmail" to "processmail.pl" in
	    all files, and rename "processmail" to "processmail.pl"
	  </PARA>
	  <NOTE>
	    <PARA>
	      I really think this may be a change we want to make for
	      main-tree Bugzilla.  It's painless for the UNIX folks,
	      and will make the Win32 people happier.
	    </PARA>
	  </NOTE>
	</STEP>
	<STEP>
	  <PARA>
	    Modify the path to perl on the first line (#!) of all files
	    to point to your Perl installation, and
	    add "perl" to the beginning of all Perl system calls that
	    use a perl script as an argument.  This may take you a while.
	    There is a "setperl.pl" utility to speed part of this procedure,
	    available in the "Patches and Utilities" section of The Bugzilla Guide.
	  </PARA>
	</STEP>
	<STEP>
	  <PARA>
	    In processmail.pl, add "binmode(HANDLE)" before all read() calls.
	    This may not be necessary, but in some cases the read() under
	    Win32 doesn't count the EOL's without using a binary read().

	      Windows 98 and higher, as well as for IIS 4.0.  Microsoft has

	      Basically you need to add two String Keys in the

	    </PARA>
	    <PARA>
	      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters\ScriptMap
	    </PARA>
	    <PARA>
	      The keys should be called ".pl" and ".cgi", and both
	      should have a value something like:
	      <COMMAND>c:/perl/bin/perl.exe "%s" "%s"</COMMAND>

	      The KB article only talks about .pl, but it goes into
